raycast replaced everything for me

spotlight is fine for simple stuff

alfred is for power users

arc is cool but sometimes buggy

chrome is boring but works

edge is actually good now lol

Trying to pick a browser. Arc is new and looks different. Chrome is the standard but memory hog. Edge is surprisingly good?

Requirements: tab management, memory usage, extensions, sync

What browser are you using for work in 2026?

resend is basically the vercel of email

super easy api, great docs

postmark is older but still solid

Starting a new backend project. Team knows TypeScript well. But Go seems popular for microservices. Python is great for prototyping.

Priorities: developer productivity, performance, hiring pool, ecosystem

What backend language would you recommend for a SaaS startup?

been using cloudflare pages for my portfolio – its free and fast af

vercel is nicer to use but the bandwidth limits hurt

netlify is fine but honestly not seeing the advantage over the other two

gh actions is fine lol

we use it at work, gets the job done. not the fastest but free tier is solid for small teams

circleci is p fast but $$$

honest take? if you are just starting, just use stripe + stripe tax

when you hit enough revenue, hire an accountant first before switching platforms

tax stuff is complicated lol 😂

honest take? just use chatgpt. i cancelled my $50/mo jasper subscription. gpt-4 writes just as well with better prompts. save your money lol.

honestly still using postman lol. i know it’s bloated but i know it well. change is hard.
